Two birds, with birds.
Who: Max and Fiona (and an NPC Orion) When: Mid-Morning Where: Bargain Books (Surprise!)
Her reclusive nature had pretty much been doubled since the demon attacks and Max hadn't been outside since her return from the safe haven. Alice was doing the shopping now and it suited the eldest Stiltner just fine because the idea of leaving her bookstore didn't sit well with her. Orion constantly complained in her head, trying to get her to go outside but Max was firm. With the threat of demons, no matter if they had passed, she wasn't leaving her building without extreme caution and a lot of convincing.
As of right now though, that was nearly impossible. Sitting on a perch behind the counter beside Max, Orion sat and spouted nonsense. "Could you shut up, please?!" she finally burst, speaking angrily. The Raven looked rightfully silenced... for a few minutes before starting up again. 'I'm only trying to help, you know? It's not healthy for you to sit inside all the time. Air is going to mad at you.' Orion sounded slightly indignant at her tone, but Max just rolled her eyes.
"In case you haven't noticed, Air is all around us. There is no way I could ignore him." she said with finality, leaning back into her chair and putting her nose firmly in a book. Orion ruffled his feathers and sat silently, Max knew it wouldn't last though.
